Slightly off topic, but somebody might know: I am using JabRef to push my references into a LyX-written book. Lets say, I have my references in ref.bib and want to search for references in the web concerning circadian obesity sleep and 2008
So I press F5 (WebSearch and Search Medline) in JabRef get a Medline Tab and insert circadian obesity sleep 2008 which would give me 48 references to reduce the number, I include review: circadian obesity sleep review 2008 which gives me 48 references In order to select the only reference I am interested in, namely Laposky .... I remove the rest before and after this reference by using cut and paste with the mouse (##question1: is there an easier way? did not find any##) generate a bibtex-key (knob) and press ok The reference is now in ref.bib However, instead of Laposky, A. D. and Bass, J. ...... as desired, I get Aaron D Laposky and Joseph Bass ... without comma and points, and the prenames in front ##Question 2: is there a way to get it correct at this stage or before?## I save the entered reference in JabRef by control s (if not done now I won't see the ref in the lyx file immediately) and push the citation into the Lyx file (pressing the LyX knob or control l) The citation is giving troubles when trying to export the LyX file, and I have to fix the author line first, which is cumbersome if there are many authors and prone to introduce errors I am sorry for this lengthy mail, but wanted to describe it in a way which is easily reproducible. I would appreciate help, and thanks a lot in advance Wolfgang
